Beautiful River Setting, But House Needs Serious TLC
The Positives: The McKenzie River setting is undeniably beautiful, with the water just steps from the door. You can sit in an Adirondack chair feet from the river and sip your morning coffee. The TV had Roku, and the bedding felt clean; bedrooms and bathrooms were reasonably maintained.The drawbacks:That said, the home felt poorly cared for. Sponges looked months old, outdoor trash was attracting insects, and there were pest droppings on the deck. Décor and furnishings felt stuck in the early 2000s—there was even food in the cupboards from 2001. Outdoor furniture and blankets seemed equally old, and a strange bird decoy outside looked unsettling. The house gave off a “still lived in” feeling, as if nothing had been sorted through in decades.Communication was minimal—we never received check-in or check-out instructions and when I called, I did not get a return call for almost an hour. Thankfully, we figured it out. It was uncomfortably warm inside, and when I requested another fan, the host said they didn’t have on. The front screen door didn’t fully close, and while the location is secluded, the house itself didn’t feel particularly secure.This isn’t the worst place you could stay, and the river setting is lovely, but if you prefer a well-kept, thoughtfully managed space, you may want to spend a bit more elsewhere.
